Swim Team Clinic Starts Today

The Hamden North Haven YMCA Swim Team looks to start their semi-annual preseason swim clinic today!  Throughout the past years, the clinic has proven to be a great educational tool for the coaches and swimmers, and has become a staple in each of the Typhoon seasons!

Swimmers will learn a plethora of stroke technique drills, starts & turns, and other pertinent swimming skills that will be utilized by the coaching staff throughout the short course season.  The coaching staff will also begin to introduce dry-land techniques and exercises that will help form stroke specific muscle memory.

The bottom line, though, the swimmers will have a great time while they are learning.  This goes for the older groups as well; because the clinic is designed to focus on the swimmers that are participating, there will not be a significant amount of yardage, but there will be a lot of experimenting with new skills and drills to really focus on the individual swimmer technique.

Look for an update tonight on our blog, and if you want to check it out feel free to stop in!  The Typhoons look forward to seeing you and/or your swimmer in the water soon!

Happy swimming!!
